Andrew Cain

A study of the Historia Monachorum in Aegypto, one of the earliest pieces of monastic hagiography to survive in Greek. It was composed in the 390s by an anonymous monk living on the Mount of Olives and details a pilgrimage to Egypt. Despite its influence on subsequent Greek hagiography, the Historia Monachorum has been little studied in its own right. Dr Cain aims to address this by providing the first comprehensive study of the HistoriaMonachorum, encompassing literary, philological, historical, and theological perspectives.
